God Three Group Chat: Three Kingdoms

...

The conflict between the North and the South has a long history, and the depth of the conflict is such that it cannot be easily reconciled.

Even the conflict between the North and the South can be said to be a matter of either you die or I die.

If the Kushan royal family had not been involved, one of the north and south would have fallen, but in terms of strength, it is more likely that the south would fall.

Even though he was stationed at the Khyber Pass, Barak was well aware of the conflict between the two sides, and even more aware of the significance of his stay in this place.

In addition to garrisoning and defending this area to prevent hostile personnel from invading all the way to Peshawar from this place, there is another thing that needs to be done, which is to be vigilant against other personnel in the north to prevent these people from moving south from the Khyber Pass and further attacking the Brahmins, further aggravating the matter.

As a loyal and trusted minister of Vasudeva I, Barak was naturally very good in this regard. Many times he was able to make big things small and small things disappear, thus calming the anger and conflicts in the north.

Although this behavior was somewhat weak and compromising, it did maintain the balance between the North and the South to a certain extent.

However, this kind of balance is limited. When the Brahmin proposed this, there might not be any problem, but when the other party starts to actually implement it, then there will be big problems.

For the five branches of the Yuezhi, the Kushan Empire is the Kushan Empire of the Yuezhi. This is the most basic foundation and cannot be shaken or changed in any way.

However, in the current situation, Barak has already discovered the danger.

This behavior of the South is probably not as simple as marrying the princess, nor is it a blow to their face. It seems to be determining the foundation of this country and who will be the ruler of this country.

It can be said that when the South engages in such behavior, Barak should normally strongly oppose it, condemn the other side’s behavior, and even use force when necessary to make the people of the South understand what should and should not be done.

However, not only people from the south were involved in this matter, but also the current emperor Vasudeva I.

After all, this matter was carried out under the emperor's order and consent. It would be unreasonable to say that His Majesty the Emperor was unaware of it.

But if His Majesty the Emperor knows about it and understands the reason, and still chooses to do so, then what is the reason?
Your Majesty has abandoned your own people? You have chosen to suppress your own people?

Out of his loyalty to Vasudeva I, Barak did not think that Vasudeva I had betrayed the nation, even if he thought about it in his heart, and he adopted a relatively peaceful way of giving up.

If it were in the past, there would naturally be plenty of time to think about countermeasures and come up with a perfect solution to get rid of this obvious one-track mindset.

But now, under the gaze of everyone, what should he choose?

Choose to be loyal to Vesudeva I and betray your own nation; choose to be loyal to your own nation and betray Vesudeva I. You need to make a choice between the individual and the nation.

"Perhaps Your Majesty is not clear about the deep-seated reasons behind this incident. I heard that Zhu Helai is involved in this matter. Perhaps Zhu Helai has made some calculations. I hope everyone will be cautious..." After thinking about it for a while, Barak came up with his own solution.

First, put aside the suspicion of Vasudeva I, then put the blame on Zhu Helai, and finally express your concern.

Although it's not perfect, at least there will be no betrayal of the emperor or the nation. "You are really smart and loyal!" When Onkrid responded to Barak's answer, his tone became more serious.

Of course, Onkelide was very satisfied with this answer in his heart.

Barak's behavior was neither unfaithful to the emperor nor to the nation, and he indeed showed excellent reaction speed.

As the commander of the Khyber Pass army appointed by Vasudeva I himself, he was deeply trusted by the emperor and naturally expressed corresponding loyalty.

The more loyal they are, the more it proves that Vasudeva I's vision is correct, and it can also clear up the problems of Vasudeva I.

However, this means that there is something wrong with Barak himself, even if the problem is not obvious, it is indeed a problem.

"The elders should learn more about the reasons behind this to avoid being schemed by others and causing Dayuezhi to suffer losses that they should not suffer." Barak, who was aware of the loss in his previous sentence, made further supplements to make up for the shortcomings of his previous words.

"Don't worry about this. We will take care of it." After hearing what the other party said, Onkrid no longer had the intention to continue the conversation. He waved his hand casually, indicating that his inquiry was over, and turned around and left.

Barak's words showed that there was nothing wrong with the other party, but his loyalty to Vasudeva I suppressed his loyalty to the nation.

In this way, there is no need to invite the other party to join.

If they really wanted to ask them to go to Peshawar together, it would probably be to help Vasudeva I, rather than to stand on their side to question Vasudeva I.

However, it is a good thing to understand this and know this information in advance.

No wonder Vasudeva I was somewhat confident in this regard. He did have a lot of power, and it seemed that the other party was not a fool.

This is a good thing, as it won’t be so troublesome when communicating with these smart people.

And the departure of Onkrid made the others present look at each other, and then they left together.

Now that the final result is out, there is not much point in them staying here.

As for the original plan to personally ask Sig and Vanaco about their behavior and thoughts, he also gave up.

Since Barak stood on the side of Vasudeva I, they did not have much time to waste. They had to go to Peshawar as quickly as possible to get Vasudeva I's true thoughts and judgments before Vasudeva I reacted.

Only when they understand the thoughts and judgments of Vasudeva I can they make the most correct choices and actions.

"Come here, quickly prepare sheepskin for me!" After seeing these people leave, Barak thought for a while and instantly realized something. He immediately began to prepare to convey the message to Vasudeva I.

No matter what Vasudeva I's previous thoughts and opinions were, when asked by these elders, the answer he gave had to be loyal to the Yuezhi. There was no other choice and no other way!
